An Action Sports Eco Park

Welcome to the new and improved Keys Cable & oTHErside Adventure Park; we have a lot happening on site & even more coming right around the corner.

-The Latest & Greatest News-

Following the storms last year we rebuilt & re-opened the beginner and advanced cables and features in December & February of 2017. The cable is open daily from 11 AM- Sunset!

In April we hosted our first annual Earth Day Festival and saw some 700 consumers on site partaking in our mangrove clean-up, learning about mans impact on the environment and shopping sustainable brands. Entertainment was in abundance; while enjoying live music guests had the opportunity to watch art come to life with live mural installations all themed by mans effect on the ecosystems they inhabit. The fashion show was the highlight of the evening following the big air wake competition. Check the event tab to learn about our upcoming 2019 event.

Over the summer our Adventure Camp kids got schooled in the botanical garden and learned about the medicinal properties of plants as well as what you can grow and eat right here in the beautiful Florida keys before hitting the cable for a few laps.

This Fall we saw record numbers with our Grom squad coming out in full force to harness their skills on the cable and socialize with their peers.

-Happenings around the Park-

Our newest addition to the oTHErside family arrived in the form of our second pro shop in early November. We invite you to help us celebrate, enjoy fantastic local beer and shopping at the grand opening extravaganza & shop hop on Thursday December the 13th!

When life gives us lemons, we’re going to make lemonade. Then we’re going to make lemon meringue pie. Not trying to undermine the massive extent of damage and hardship that this Hurricane has bestowed upon us. It truly has been the most exhausting obstacle that Keys Cable and Otherside Boardsports has ever encountered. In terms of physically, mentally and financially, this storm alllmost wiped us out. But not quite.

17 acres of debris and downed trees have been cleared. Features, docks and operator stands have been rebuilt. The buildings have been dried out, and electric has been completely rerun to our cable systems. Our Sesi-tec cable systems have had a complete overhaul and are running smoother than ever. The garden has been replanted and the back of the property has been rearranged in preparation of stage 3 of Otherside Adventure Park’s plans. We’re happy to say that the pre-storm renovation to the building; new roof and 67 solar panels all held up to their stated hurricane ratings. The solar panels were connected to the grid in February which makes us one step closer to our carbon neutral goals. The building also received a little aesthetic upgrade, in the form of a 40ft tall Flamingo mural by Miami based nature artist, Dave L.

The sun is shining, the water is warm, and we have wakeboard coaches that love to teach wakeboarding! Whether its your first time, or your first invert, we can make it happen! We’re never going to stop working to make this once-derelict-and-abandoned property something beautiful in the heart of the Keys with something for everyone to enjoy. Come on down and be part of this process- the making of our Lemon Meringue Pie for all to enjoy. We’re ready for you 🙂

Keys Cable will be open for the entire holiday week with an early shutdown on thanksgiving day at 3:00 p.m.!

Thanksgiving in the keys is a wonderful time of year! We are expecting a good number of people in town for the weekend so we encourage riders to call ahead and check for availability. If your group consists of 3 or more riders we strongly recommend you call in advance to book a private rental. This guarantee’s a reservation for you and your group and allows us to make sure people can get on the water when they want!

For more information on booking please contact us direct at 305 414 8245

Thanksgiving weather info:

There are some larger cold fronts dipping down from the north east over the week which will bring some windy weather to us down here in in the keys! While we are expecting temperatures not to drop below the mid 70’s the wind will make the water slightly chilly so make sure to pick up a wetsuit top or a shorty! We have a limited stock on sale at the park but a much more extensive line at our Islamorada location! Make sure to inquire about our cable for kite sessions as this is the perfect holiday week to capitalize on the wind and get proficient at kiteboarding!!

Forget all your usual summer camps, baseball and bug collecting aren’t for you anyway. (Or, maybe they’re ALSO for you!) Keys Cable is all about fun and progression, and beating the heat. Come down for a week (lodging discounts available for those traveling from out of the area). Choose your camp, based around your availability and ability, and come shred with us, a handful of other fun people, and we’ll have you learning things you never thought possible!
